Help after being on remand and being found not guilty.

[Burnsy2023]

Why, in the absence of any other available information, are you so willing to defend the system?

Because I know the system and I know that it's difficult to get a remand.

Then again, most police/wannabe cops seem hell bent on defending the system which pays their salaries and feeds their viewpoints and desires...

Not at all, I could tell you all sorts of stories of how the system is broken and the CPS can make some very questionable decisions not to prosecute - just that this part of the system is probably one of the lesser broken parts.

Are you suggesting the CPS and police don't lie? The CPS twist everything to suit their story. In the one hour the trial lasted I counted three things they made up. One being that they thought I was going for a **** in the street. Wasn't true and there was nothing to suggest that.

I have no idea why the police were so determined to get me remanded. I was granted bail but the police spoke to the CPS barrister and they appealed.

You seem very trusting in the system.

I'm saying it's rare for either to lie and even more rare for them both to lie in the same way. Most of the time there is no incentive for either to lie and I'm sure there are many more accusations then there are founded instances.

The fact that there was an appeal also adds further weight to the likelihood that the facts were further scrutinised.

Are you a police officer? What experience do you have with this sort of thing?

Maybe lie was the wrong word. Maybe they really believed their story was true.

They claimed I was stressed so would do it again and due to the weight of evidence it was clear I did it. Even made some claim about CCTV backing up their story. All this proved to be false The court wasn't made aware of her past either but I think that is normal. The facts are not scrutinised properly at this stage as I am sure you know. My first bail hearing only lasted five minutes(wasn't at the appeal as they forgot to call me from the prison cell. This seemed dodgy to me). Hardly enough time to scrutinised the facts.

I can't accept it is hard to remand someone. I have seen first hand how little they need to do it. I am the last person you would ever expect in prison and had no previous at all. All it took was the CPS to say and convince the judge I was stressed and was a risk of doing it again. If they can remand me they can remand anyone.
